How APIs are driving innovation and transformationSoftware M&ARecapSECOND QUARTER 2022While not a new trend, the use of application programming interfaces (APIs)has become an increasingly discussed topic with our clients and as part ofthe transactions we work on. As industries — especially those that have beenslower to adopt technology — undergo digital transformation, APIs provide animportant role in connectivity and innovation.APIs are essentially secure connection points between one application andother systems, applications, devices or services. A 2021 survey said over 40%of large organizations use over 250 APIs and 71% of developers plan to usemore in the coming year.1 These are some of the trends we see that are drivingtheir increased adoption.We believe the following trends will drive an increase in the future adoptionof APIs.Companies’ increased usage of business applicationsrequires connectivityEDITORSSid NairCanada Technology M&A LeaderSenior Vice President, Ernst & Young Orenda Corporate Finance Inc.sid.nair@ca.ey.com 1 416 943 3404The days of companies having one single ERP application are long gone. Infact, in 2021, companies used an average of 110 business applications, a 38%increase over the prior year.2 Companies have found using an assortment ofbest-in-class solutions can be a successful strategy, but in many cases theyrequire connectors to effectively communicate with each other. That’s whereAPIs come in.Devon MacMurrayVice President, Ernst & Young Orenda Corporate Finance Inc.devon.macmurray@ca.ey.com 1 416 932 6131Lian PetersAssociate, Ernst & Young Orenda Corporate Finance Inc.lian.peters@ca.ey.com 1 416 932 543812“ The API Stack: The Billion Dollar Opportunities Redefining Infrastructure, Services and Platforms,”Forbes, May 4, 2021. “SaaS Data Security Report 2021,” BetterCloud, 2021.Adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) is creating a needfor connections between devices and applicationsThe rise of the IoT is creating more communication points between devicesand applications. This creates a need for secure APIs to be able to effectivelyreceive data from connected devices so they can be used for data analysis andto drive insights.As more industries digitally transform, APIs are needed todrive innovation and make connectionsThere are industries that are undergoing massive digital transformation.These include financial services, health care, construction and government.Depending on the application, there’s an increased need for connectivity andcommunication between industries. For example, government applicationsmay need to receive legal, financial and health care information to betterserve their customers, and APIs can provide the bridge to securely andeffectively do this.That all said, this ability to innovate through connectivity is not without itschallenges. For some uses, larger applications may not have data that iswell configured to share through API. Earlier-stage industries like ESG arelooking to other business applications to allow customers to access the datathey need from the systems. Systems are continually changing to betterprovide connectivity with other systems, and new companies are beingfounded to deliver services through APIs to help fill the gaps in connectivitythat currently exist.
